The Magic of Determinants
The determinant is one of the first and most fundamental polynomials one encounters in mathematics. Discovered over two centuries ago, far before the notion of a matrix was even formalized, these polynomials remain an important part of modern mathematics. In this lecture, we will talk about all things determinant: history, notable results, and connections to modern problems in many areas of mathematics, including complexity theory, numerical analysis, probability, and others.
